The Sword in the Philippines



A TSATF variant, this time for 'very early 20th Century
Moro Rebellion in the newly-acquired Philippine islands .
Mark Stevens has used these, along with striking terrain
features, to run games at HISTORICON, some years ago.
Can the U.S. Army and "Big Bill" Taft (Secretary of War)
clear up the mess in the islands? You must have "The
Sword and the Flame" to play this.

    What was the real story in the Phillipines?

    Like all history, the truth is often elusive!I saw a great
    program on the Spanish American
    War that went into the background quite a bit. The chief reason for American occupation was the need for coaling stations by naval
    ships of the time. The Germans
    also were interested in the
    place!
